Kent State 74, Nebraska 60: Chris Evans collected a team-high 19 points and Darren Goodson chipped in 16 as the visiting Golden Flashes handed the Cornhuskers their first loss of the season.

Evans was a blistering 8-of-9 from the field and Goodson went 8-for-10 for Kent State (4-2), which was playing its first game away from home.

Dylan Talley shot 10-of-21 from the field for a game-high 27 points for Nebraska (4-1), which was undone by its porous 3-point shooting. After going 10-for-19 versus Tulane on Wednesday, the Cornhuskers shot 3-of-19 from beyond the arc against Kent State.

Following a lackluster first half, the Golden Flashes began the second on a 9-2 run to seize a 41-35 lead. Evans spurred the run with a jumper and three free throws.

Talley was able to trim the deficit to 54-51, but Kent State went on a 12-2 run to essentially seal the victory.

GAME NOTEBOOK: Kent State's Randal Holt, who finished with 15 points, sits six shy of 1,000 for his career. ... Nebraska's Shavon Shields made his debut on Wednesday, but sat out Saturday's contest with a sore elbow. ... Kent State connected on 54 percent of its shots from the field.
